Ofusato

Ofusato (承察度) (1337–1398) was the first king of Nanzan, a kingdom in the southernmost end of Okinawa.[1]

He presented himself to the Chinese imperial court for recognition in 1388. After Ofusato died while in Korea, his brother Yafuso seized power and sought formal recognition from China.
